in our systems the original language is German. I logged on into a 6.0 Unicode system in English, started SE38, entered program name and clicked on Change. It did not ask for language change, but when I went to menu Goto / Attributes, it immediately asked for language change (as I wrote in my previous post). Pls. note you have to be in Change mode!

OK, I had a look at the source code before the information message is raised and know what is the problem: The actual system is NOT the original system of the program. You have to change the orginal system first. You can do this in transaction SU03.
